Since the day
when a wolf bite left him afflicted with a particularly virulent strain of
lycanthropy, Count Von Sabrewulf has lived in exile in his remote mountain
tower, shunned by society, and struggling with insanity as his disease grows
steadily worse. A handful of years back his worst nightmare was realized when
he failed to revert to human form at all. Every rumor of a possible cure has
been at best a hoax, so when a message arrives promising salvation should he
enter and win the Ultratech contest, Sabrewulf is highly suspicious but
obliged to seize any chance that comes his way.

I suppose a werewolf
can only have so much personality, but Sabrewulf had an undeniably cool fighting
style and charisma in the 90's fighting game world. He's probably among
the most memorable character designs in the Killer Instinct series, and also one of the most fun characters to
use. Some people might just dub him as an oversized wolf
in a pair of pants, but hey... He's a werewolf, and that's the dress code for
werewolves. For the record, in the original KI, he only wore a shirt (no pants)...
which was slightly awkward. I'm
glad he finally decided to cover up his shame in KI2. lol.
